cruisecontrol

I am triggering an ant script (via cruise control), and would like to be able to dump the std out and std err for a particular ant target to a plain text file . Yes, I am aware that cruise control already does maintain an XML log file containing this information (among many other things), but for portability reasons, I need this to happen from the ant script itself. Is this possible, and if so, how to do it? Many thanks!

Is there a better way to implement code freeze in SVN than asking all developers to not check in any new code? We have CruiseControl running, which automatically deploys the latest build to environment. So if new code comes in, the build that was made available earlier changes to the latest one. I want that the build that is deployed is the one from a particular branch/tag, so that any new code check-ins dont affect the deployed build. Only when i tag/branch next time, the new code should be again deployed. How can we achieve this? Use SVN's built in branching functionality. The following link

I would like to integrate QTP with Cruise Control, which I have done so far, i'm stuck at the reporting part. I would like to somehow report back to Cruise Control with the results, how can I accomplish this? Please help? I remember there was a useful series on how to integrate CCNET with various build and testing tools including QTP. This is what I bookmarked: Part 1: Continuous Integration using MSBuild, CruiseControl.NET, FxCop, NUnit, NCover + Subversion - From the software development trenches But somehow it seems to have vanished. Today I found the updated version by accident. It doesn't

This question already has an answer here: Writing a git post-receive hook to deal with a specific branch 7 answers I'm executing a programme to alert CruiseControl each time an update is sent to our remote repository. I'm using a Git post-update hook for this. It would be great if I could find out which branch had been committed so I could use that to inform CruiseControl which branch to build. Is there any way to access the branch name within a post-update hook? The first parameter to the post-update hook is the branch reference in full - for instance I see 'refs/heads/master' for a push to

I think the title sums it up. I just want to know why one or the other is better for continous integration builds of Java projects from Svn. As a long time CruiseControl committer and someone who has never used Hudson I'm pretty biased, but my take on it is: Hudson is much easier to get up and running (in large part from a nice web interface) and has a very active plugin development community. CruiseControl has support from lots of 3rd party stuff and has the benefit of doing some neat tricks with the xml configuration like plugin preconfiguration and include.projects which lets you version

After using Hudson for continuous integration with a prior project, I want to set up a continuous integration server for the iPhone projects I'm working on now. After doing some research it looks like there aren't any CI engines designed specifically for Xcode, but one guy has had success using Cruise Control combined with the xcodebuild CLI tool . Has anyone here tried this? Are there any CI engines that work well with Xcode projects? I'm probably going to give Cruise Control a try. I'll post an answer with my findings. Silentcode I'm successfully using Hudson on the mac with xcodebuild. With

I would like to ask you which automated build environment you consider better, based on practical experience. I'm planning to do some .Net and some Java development, so I would like to have a tool that supports both these platforms. I've been reading around and found out about CruiseControl.NET , used on stackoverflow development, and TeamCity with its support for build agents on different OS-platforms and based on different programming languages. So, if you have some practical experience on both of those, which one do you prefer and why? Currently, I'm mostly interested in the ease of use and
